The utter absurdity of the "universal sovereignty issue", chapter 4,786

by sir82 in

so on the jw broadcast channel, there is a new 4 minute video entitled "why does god permit suffering".

i won't give them free advertising by linking to it, but you'll find it under the "latest videos" section.. it looks like it will be something that will eventually be used in field serve-us as a video to show householders.. anyway, it gives the illustration of the teacher and a "rebellious student" who says he has a "better way to solve the problem".

the infinitely wise teacher allows him to try, he fails, and the teacher is "vindicated".. other posts on this site demonstrate how inane the illustration really is - it breaks down nearly effortlessly.. anyway, the video goes on to explain that god allowed "rebellious humans" to continue on because (more or less direct quote) "millions of angels were observing.

Hey Boss. That Satan guy in Shipping keeps screwing things up, and all our orders are going out wrong. We're getting a lot of complaints from our clients. Can't we do something about him?

Well, Mr. Angel, I'd like to, but in order to prove to the rest of the company that I am the boss and that I know what's best for all employees, I'm going to let Mr. Satan, and his department, continue to run Shipping how they see fit, for the time being. Oh I have a time table in mind, and it's soon, but not yet. By the time I act, everyone will see that I was right and he was wrong, and no one will try to change our shipping operations again. Make sense to you, Mr. Angel?

Um, I think I'll tender my resignation, effective immediately.

If the Watchtower corporation went bust

by Fred Franztone in

what do you think would happen to jehovah's witnesses as a religion and as a people?.

undercover

Go bust, as in 'out of business'? Unlikely. They may downsize, they may reorganize, but the religion will continue to do the same thing it has always done - reinvent itself in order to stay relevant (at lease relevant to people who believe in it)

Now - here's a fantasy to dwell on for a couple of minutes.... what if the entire GB were arrested for fraud, cover up, something, anything... the kind of scandal that brings down powerful leaders and icons.

Oh sure, there'd be a few diehards that would refuse to accept the reality, but by and large, for many it would be the catalyst to dig deeper and realize the folly of their belief system.

Highly unlikely to happen, but oh well, it's fun to think about for a couple of minutes anyway

The strange case of Gerrit Losch

by Gorbatchov in

jw
friends

one of the recent molest cases had a signed declaration of gerrit losch, stating he has no relation with watchtower and that he has no control over watchtower and he does not answer to watchtower.. this month he is hosting the watchtower broadcasting show, on a watchtower media chanel, with a watchtower president starring as co-host, with statements, media and music that have intellectual ownership and copyright by watchtower.. gerrit is asking on broadcasting for respect for “the slave”, just like jehova and jesus respect “the slave” and will even reward them.. are the writers of the statement too stupid to see the correlation between teaching and practicing?.

these man are proven liars.. how can hold this firewall stand?

it’s so thin.. a judge can see this mismach isn’t it??.

Marking...

Thanks to all the Jim Rockfords in the apostate ranks that keep the info flowing...

March 2018 Broadcast - When quotes become rumors

by Listener in

this months broadcast is presented by losche and he discusses the need for trust in the fds.

the following is transcribed from the 12.30 mark.. satan also has the scheme to spread rumors about our brothers including the faithful slave.

the method of spreading rumors is not new.

undercover

So, whom do you trust? You fully trust in Jehovah, Jesus and the Faithful Slave. To a reasonable degree you also trust all of your fellow Brothers and Sisters

Well well well, I see they have fully equated themselves with God himself now. Trust Jehovah, Jesus, and Us, the JW Holy Trinity. Popes R Us.

Oh Boy! Beards are "stumbling blocks" again ... from Stephen Lett

so this week's midweek meeting video about stumbling others has lett spouting and gurning rubbish again.. if you can't take the whole 9 minutes go from 5:50 to get the context and 6:45 for the "beard" mention.. https://youtu.be/ezv1ici5cwo.

oh, well - at least they shoot themselves in the foot with this doublespeak.

When you say, 'midweek meeting video', does this mean that each and every congregation (in the US at least) sits and watches this tripe?

Is this a weekly thing now? Watch a video of a crazy person instead of having live speakers and demonstrations?

How is it anyone still is part of this religion???

A spy's life is a lonely one

by LevelThePlayingField in

so i have been awake since about this time in 2013, so about 5 years.

and the craziest thing about it is that now, no one, and i mean no one know's i am an apostate.

meaning, that i don't believe the jw minds set/beliefs at all, and no one knows it.

undercover

Do you hum the James Bond theme when you go into the hall? You can introduce yourself to visitors as, 'Field. Leveltheplaying Field.'

Seriously though I get what you're saying. Movies make the spy game look glamorous but in the real world it's anything but. Even on the level of being an apostate spy, which is not as nearly as dangerous as being an MI6 or CIA Operative, you have to constantly stay on guard, watch your back, not trust anyone. It is tiring and depressing.

Hopefully one day you can lose your Double 0 status and enjoy your freedom. Good luck.

Satan is "bullying" you through family

by neat blue dog in

just thought i'd share this ridiculous picture from a recent watchtower.

in recent years, the word bullying has been thrown around a lot, and often misused by instigators and subtle bullies themselves.

in this picture we learn that your loving family who wants to continue sharing a family tradition with you, who hands you a beautifully wrapped present with a smile on their face, is in fact bullying you.

Satan's not much of an evil presence, if he has to rely on Grandma giving you a box of socks around the winter solstice as his means of causing you pain and anguish.

And the Almighty Supreme Creator can't deal with this guy for over 6,000 years? Doesn't say much for him either.

In case you want to see mass quantities of ignorance / stupidity on display....a dinosaur thread on JWTalk

by sir82 in

https://jwtalk.net/forums/topic/34840-what-does-the-bible-say-about-dinosaurs/.

amazing how many words can be expended discussing things that people have utterly no clue about..

There is no direct reference to dinosaurs in the Bible.

Well, in my very first New World Translation there was. Dino was roaming the desert on the inside cover.

Gun Nuts...

by silentbuddha in

anyone here into guns.

i know alot of the euros here hate the idea but i wonder if there are any other members who are collectors or who are into hunting, target shooti g etc.. no shame zone?.

undercover

4 of them, for protection

You must have a lot of enemies.

I imagine it must be quite a skill to shoot 4 guns at once. I can see two, but I don't think even John Wick could pull off shooting 4 at once.
